I have a jailbroken iPhone 6. The actual jailbreaking process wasn't difficult but I'm having difficulty understanding the relationship between tweaks, packages, files, etc. As an example, how will I know if a tweak requires a package for it to work? If a description mentions something about changing or updating files, how or where do I do that? Can someone recommend a user friendly tutorial or document? There are a few things I want to do to my phone but am running into some roadblocks because I don't fully understand what needs to be done.
Thank you in advance.

A tweak, package,JB program, hack its all the same.
Let's say you want to install something from cydia. If that tweak requires other dependencies to be downloaded and installed with it in order for the program to fully function it will all download and install together at once.
You dont have to go look for other packages to make a tweak work. Cydia will do it all automatically for you.
